Investing in Community Visions

The New Green House

This summer’s community garden was a great success! Thanks to the help of Lori Dale, Firman Young, Megan Eagles, John Publicover, and Farrell Monroe. This summer AHT placed a large emphasis on environmental sustainability, beginning with the hiring of a Green Coordinator as part of our S.W.A.G. team and with the addition of a green house in the community garden. The new greenhouse features 95% repurposed materials and all repurposed cedar. The door and glass lining the exterior of the building were donated by a local construction site as a means not to waste any material that would not be used. In the future, we plan on building solar panels atop the building and creating a rain water recovery system for watering the plants inside our green house and our community garden.
